How do I apply?

get a form from the Housing Reception at Edward T Wheadon House, Le Truchot.

The application form asks questions about your current living arrangements, your finances and your care and support needs. The more information you provide, the easier it will be for us to assess whether you are eligible for extra care housing. You will need to specify which extra care development you would like to live at or that you’d be happy to live at either. Our Privacy Policy tells you what to expect when the GHA processes your personal information.

What happens if I need to sell my current property in order to buy a property in Extra Care Housing?

Initially, you will be given 2 to 3 months’ notice that you have been allocated a property. We would advise that you put your current property on the market as soon as you have received an offer letter from the GHA.

If you have not sold your property, and the funds are not available by your purchase date, you will be required to move into the allocated property in Extra Care on a rented licence.

Based on 2018 figures, for La Nouvelle Maraitaine you will pay £226 per week rent and £51.13 per week service charge and for Le Grand Courtil it is £226 per week rent and £49.50 per week service charge. This licence will be valid for 3 months, after which time, you will need to consider lowering the asking price for your property and use multiple agents to sell your home. The GHA would potentially look at granting you an additional 3 month licence if you can prove that you have made every effort to sell your property in order to release funds.
